Baffles me how he has been completely wrote off after a handful of games. People forget the lad is still a young player, new team (playing poorly) and in a new country. Far more experienced players have struggled to adapt, and have been given more time. It would be nice to secure safety and then see if we can give players like Sandro and Klaassen a chance to adapt before we make a final decision. I think there's a player in there.

He may be able to eventually adapt, but how would that work? We're too shit to carry him as a passenger for a whole season in the hope he'll come good. No-one is likely to take him on loan either based on his performances so far. And you can't acclimatise just by attending trainings and playing for the U23s. (Not to mention how he'd feel about it.)

We've carried a number of players all season. This season is a write off. A top 10 finish is the best we can hope for and the only reason I'm confident we're staying up is because there are about 6 or 7 teams who are even worse than us. Now is surely the time to give players like Sandro a go? 14 goals in La Liga last season for a struggling Malaga team. Are we saying if a new signing doesn't work in the first 5-6 games, then they're not good enough, end of discussion?

His little lay off and run that Lookman ignored showed enough of a sign for me that we should keep him till the summer. Got to give the lad some minutes in games like that.

I must have missed that little lay off and run, or forgotten it. To those who have expressed their love for Senor Sandro, I am sure they will get over it. There is no room for passengers on this ship, we already have more than our fair share of them both young and no longer so young. We need to unload a few players, not just one or two, so bye bye Sandro. Go find your sunglasses.
